“IT TAKES real planning to organize this kind of chaos.” ~Mel Odom
I, Hope O’Connor, plan my life down to the Ts. As in timely, tidy, and
thorough. Not to mention, tenacious. Because it takes a lot of careful
planning to stick to an itinerary. Or so I imagine. As someone who’s also
thrifty, I’ve only taken a handful of trips in my three decades of living. But
today’s flight to So Cal is going to be the start of an adventure. A week-long
vacation full of fun sightseeing, delicious food, and window shopping.
Assuming I can get my luggage on board the plane first.
“Miss, your bag is definitely over the weight limit. That’s going to be a
$100 charge to have it checked in.” The slightly balding attendant at the
counter looks over the frame of his blue glasses, giving me a mostly
perturbed frown. His cheeks are rosy, and his thick beard could give Santa a
run for his money, but I’m pretty sure he’s full of something other than
Christmas cheer. “We accept all major credit cards, so if you’ll make the
payment, we can get on our merry way.”
The name tag clipped to his red polo shirt reads Frank, which is quite
apropos given his directness. I’m just as ready to live out the meaning of my
name, and hope beyond hope that we can come to a compromise. Because
I’m so not willing to spend my hard-earned money before my vacation even
starts.
I stretch to my full height of five-foot-four and lean my elbows onto the
counter. With my most endearing smile, like the one I gave my fifth graders
a week ago when we parted ways before summer began, I reply, “Mr. Frank
—can I call you Mr. Frank?” When he grunts in agreement, I continue, “I
hear what you’re saying, but I really don’t have any money to spare. I’m a
schoolteacher, and this is the first vacation I’ve taken since I started
working. My best friend and I planned this trip ages ago to celebrate her
30th birthday. And the only reason my luggage is a teeny tiny bit over the
weight limit is because I packed her gift in it. I can’t not bring her gift,
right?”
Not missing a beat, Frank clears his throat and leans his elbows onto the
counter. His bushy eyebrows draw together as he looks me up and down.
“You say you’re a teacher, and you just used a double negative?”
